[Verse 1]
Baby, baby, baby
From the day I saw you
I really, really wanna catch your eye
There's something special 'bout you
I must really like you
There's not a lotta guys are worth my time, oh
Ooh, baby, baby, baby
It's gettin' kind of crazy
'Cause you are takin' over my mind
[Chorus]
And it feels like, ooh
But you don't know my name
I swear, it feels like, ooh (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
But you don't know my name
('Round and 'round and 'round we go, will you ever know?)
[Verse 2]
Oh, baby, baby, baby
I see us on our first date
You're doin' everything that makes me smile
When we had our first kiss
It happened on a Thursday
Ooh, it set my soul on fire
Ooh, baby, baby, baby
I can't wait for the first time
My imagination's runnin' wild
[Chorus]
It feels like, ooh
But you don't know my name
And I swear it, baby, it feels like, ooh (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
But you don't know my name
('Round and 'round and 'round we go, will you ever know?)
[Bridge]
I'm sayin', he don't even know what he's doin' to me
Got me feelin' all crazy inside
I'm feelin like, "Oww!" (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Doin' more than I've ever done for anyone's attention
Take notice of what's in front of you
'Cause did I mention? (Oww!)
You're 'bout to miss a good thing
And you'll never know how good it feels to have all of my affection
And you'll never get a chance to experience my lovin' (Oww!)
[Chorus]
'Cause my lovin' feels like, ooh
But you don't know my name
('Round and 'round and 'round we go, will you ever know?)
And I swear it feels like, ooh (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
But you don't know my name
('Round and 'round and 'round we go, will you ever know?), oh
[Post-Chorus]
Will you ever know it?
[Spoken Interlude]
"I'm gonna have to just go ahead and call this boy
Hello? Can I speak to -- to Michael?
Oh hey, how you doin'?
Uh, I feel kinda silly doin' this, but uhh...
This is the waitress from the coffee house on 39th and Lenox
You know, the one with the braids?
Yeah, well, I see you on Wednesdays all the time
You come in every Wednesday on your lunch break, I think
And you always order the special, with the hot chocolate
Look, man, I mean, I don't wanna waste your time, but...
I know girls don't usually do this
But I was wondering if maybe we could get together
Outside the restaurant one day?
'Cause I do look a lot different outside my work clothes
Wait, hold up, my cell phone's breakin' up, hold up
Can you hear me now? Yeah
So, what day did you say?
Oh yeah, Thursday's perfect, man"
[Chorus]
And it feels like, ooh
But you don't know my name
('Round and 'round and 'round we go, will you ever know?)
[Outro]
And I swear on my mother and father it feels like...
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh
But you don't know my name
('Round and 'round and 'round we go, will you ever know?)
